July/ August  2013

 The  fairy gardens are hopping......growing weeds and annuals  and perrineals  too...along with   some herbs.......................................A view through the portal....shhhhhhhhhh see the  fairly sitting there........Lets  not  disturb

 Planted a few annuals  near the bird bath  just to add some fillers this year

 Getting big

 peas are  starting to fill out

 Such a bright orange.......talk about  God's beauty

 Crimson red should be in every garden~

 As should purple

A peek at the annuals a week later....strating to  fill in some~

 Things are looking up in Fairy Lands.........Some of the flowers that were planted  last year are looking good!!

 Some of the  decorations  coming  out

Shhhhhhh   Fairy is sleeping

Blooms appearing~  Now the  fun begins~

 I took a walk yesterday  down to the back yard  fairy lands......Got the  bird bath set up and  did  some  cleaning up of old branches......

 noticed  some Italian basil is  now  growing  well.....

 Also neat the  entry  I came  across a bird nest...... 5  little  ones  in the  nest......so  I did  not  end  up cleaning  near those bushes and  trees.......as I did  not  want to  disturb them  or upset the  female  any more than I had

 Picked some  fresh cat nip...........

ahhhhhhh  some of the  perrineals  from last year  are   coming nice!!!

Special visitor today.............

 I ventured down to fairy  Lands  today  to see if anything  was  moving.....Sure enough...... look at the  sweet little  toad.....I am not sure what  he was after but  he was  surveying the  entire area.

 The  raspberry  bushes  I planted  last year......are peeking through!

Another one has   some buds.........Ahhh  yes.....things  are  progressing in  Fairy  Land~

Fairy Lands 2013

 After a  winter of quiet  and  blanket of snow is melting.....Some things in the woods  began to rustle

 I took a walk back there and notices   some cleaning of  old  brush  and  limbs  have taken place..Soon  we will see the makings of a new  fairly land  for 2013........

 While back inside at the house.....awaiting some warmer  days some seedlings have  sprouted.....Some of which will carried to  Fairy Land

Sage is  my favorite  herb.......I  use to cook  many things.....and last year  I started making  sage tea!
So please stayed  tuned  for new things to come  this  summer.....................
